Both for the DTs and the DF/EF/PFs I figured it would be nice to have
as much of these variables listed somewhere as they aren't always so
easy to find a reference for.

DF & EFs are a part of the MIPI spec, but the identifier is SOC/vendor specific.
PFs are not a part of the MIPI spec at all, but rather a Qcom specific term.

Having looked over the DFs again, there are some incompatible
differences between Gen1 & Gen2. I think the way forward is moving
DF/EF/PFs to Gen 1/2 specific headers.

That's intentional, collecting this information somewhere for future
use seemed like a good idea. But I'm happy to remove it if that's a
bad idea.

I missed this duplication, I'll fix this in the next version.
